#25: Don’t Poke the Bear
A Reddit user attempted to add some levity to the thread by sharing this piece of common-sense advice. They wrote, “If you punch a bear in the nose, you can say you did something cool before you die.” Uh, okay. We can all agree that punching a bear in the nose is the worst idea ever, right? Don’t do this.

Was he joking? Sure. But some people didn’t find this attempt at a joke to be that funny. Bear attacks are serious business! If you ever encounter a wild bear face-to-face, remember to act aggressively around black bears and play dead around brown bears. Don’t punch either of them in the nose, though, okay?
